It is because the H.K. gov't does'twant people to drive car and the import tax for car is almost 100%. In the U.S. car is consider a necessary item, but in H.K. it is consider a luxury item.

AH!!! Anthracite Metallic TL-S!!!! I wish we have that color here..

I like the gearshifter plate better.. looks more luxurious then the polished plate on ours..



Also, I noticed that HK TL doesn't have Cruise Control....

notice that they have 1-2-D3-D instead of the 1-2-D3-D4-D5 that we got.

on the second pic I noticed that there seem to be an opening under the sunroof switch below the 3 bottoms. Is that the fuse or ?!?!?!?1

Big Phil, as you can see I have a black Honda and Anthrocite TL. The black looks awesome when clean but crappy when dirty. The anthrocite however looks good when dirty as it does not show the dirt and marginally better when clean. To me the clean black is striking and they grey just looks good all the time. IMHO

The reason they skipped 4th is because "4" in Chinese has the same pronounciation as "Death" in Chinese.

As for the cover, I am not so sure... maybe it's a coin holder?? BTW, I also noticed that they have no dimmer switch for cluster.

Big Phil,

Ya, I have seen Antheracite TL-P. But the color is not available for TL-S in Canada/US, which is a let down.... it's such a nice color...
